ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON GEMFIELDS

 

Gemfields is a world-leading responsible miner and marketer coloured
gemstones. Gemfields is the operator and 75% owner of both the Kagem emerald
mine in Zambia (believed to be the world's single largest producing emerald
mine) and the Montepuez ruby mine in Mozambique (one of the most significant
recently discovered ruby deposits in the world). In addition, Gemfields also
holds controlling interests in various other gemstone mining and prospecting
licences in Zambia, Mozambique, Ethiopia and Madagascar.

 

Gemfields' outright ownership of Fabergé - an iconic and prestigious brand of
exceptional heritage - enables Gemfields to optimise positioning, perception
and consumer awareness of coloured gemstones through Fabergé designs,
advancing the wider group's "mine and market" vision.

 

Gemfields has developed a proprietary grading system and a pioneering auction
and trading platform to provide a consistent supply of coloured gemstones to
downstream markets, a key component of Gemfields' business model that has
played an important role in the growth of the global coloured gemstone sector.
